Description

The third video of those we made on 14th September 2016, see links below for Dec. 2017 updates. Here we see the growth of cabbage, calabrese, winter squash and climbing beans, after preceding crops of the same. I draw no conclusions but there are interesting implications. Filmed and edited by Edward Dowding. The first video is "Comparing growth and harvests in adjacent strips, dug and no dig", the second is "Compost comparison".
